The Environment Planning and Sustainability Directorate makes grant application forms for the ACT Heritage Grants Program, the ACT Natural Resource Management (NRM) Environment Grants Program and the Affordable Housing Innovation Fund available in paper form upon request.
In 2019, the ACT Adult Community Education Grants Program will provide additional funding to support the capacity of ACE Grants applicant organisations to make a successful application. It is anticipated that many of these organisations will be based within CALD communities.
The ACT Health Promotion Grants Program is not planning to introduce paper-based applications at this point in time.
(3) Both the Community Services Directorate and the Environment, Planning and Sustainable Development Directorate reviews each grant application criteria annually prior to finalising the grant guidelines and opening the grant round.
An annual desktop review of the Actsmart grants process includes a review of the criteria and adjustments to meet the needs of the community and the policy direction of the Government.
The ACT ACE Grants Program application criteria has undergone an extensive review in 2018. The revised application guidelines are expected to be published shortly.
The ACT Health Promotion Grants Program continually reviews its grants application processes based on feedback from internal and external stakeholders.
(4) The Community Services Directorate has no plans to increase grant funding available in 2019-20. Members of the CALD community are able to apply for a range of grants including multicultural, youth, women, disability, seniors, community support and digital.
In 2017-18, EPSDD funding for the ACT Heritage Grants Program was increased from $180,000 to $200,000 over 4 years 2017-2021 while Actsmart grants are funded through various programs and budget processes. At this stage there are no plans to increase funding for the current programs.
Funding for ACT ACE Grants Program projects that commence in 2019 has been increased from $200,000 to $400,000 due to additional funding received from the Skilling Australians Fund (SAF).
